The inset cover illustration shows a longleaf pine forest in the Sandhills of North Carolina, USA, following a prescribed burn. Composition, ecotone position, and plant functional traits all responded directionally to increased fire frequency. Nearly all observed changes in community-weighted trait values were driven by intraspecific trait variability (photo credit: Wright Lab). (See Mitchell et al. pp. 543–552).
